Sunglasses trends: summer 2019

Summer has arrived in the city. So now's the time to splurge on a new pair of sunglasses. While classic styles remain a sound investment, it's hard to resist the instant wardrobe update provided by a perfectly on-trend pair of statement shades. Scroll down for our pick of the sunglasses trends for summer 2019. Visor style

You don't need to hit the slopes or the velodrome to experiment with a visor - this summer's big eyewear trend - but this oversized, sporty style will look best when worn with sleek tailoring with a dash of athleisure.

The Stella McCartney pair tick off multiple trends with vibrant colour and bold branding. There are angular and more rounded options that will work on a range of face shapes, just be sure that oversized proportions don't leave you looking like you've just had cataract surgery.Shaped lenses

There's something particularly irreverent about a shaped lens, but steer clear of novelty territory by keeping things classic in colour and opting for minimal, metal frames. We're particularly taken with the cloud-like scalloped edges of this Miu Miu pair - an insouciant take on classic aviator styles.

Follow the off-duty model look and keep make-up minimal with these frames, a sheer foundation, hint of lip tint and messy up-do.Colour pop

When it comes to adding a bit of colour to your look, accessories are a great place to start. And as there are a range of hues - from punchy and vibrant to muted pastels - there's a colour pop pair of shades out there for almost everyone.

Keep things classic with oversized acetate frames or aviators in muted shades, or opt for the most of-the-moment way to wear the trend and look for colour coordinated frames and lenses. Logomania

The fashion world continues to be gripped by logomania - with branding to be found printed, embossed and laser-etched on all manner of ready to wear this season. When it comes to branded shades, we tend to think the bolder the better - just ensure you have enough of a sense of humour to pull them off. Subtlety more your style? Valentino's golden 'V's are as close to low-key as this trend gets.
